Featured Reviews

Uday Kiran B - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers the capability to customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything
The best thing is we can customize it. For example, there are some standard procedures in CRM, the opportunity that is standard. Other than that, we can create customized software on a business-to-business basis. So, if I don't want to follow any standard upgrade of CRM, I can customize it the way I want, create my own CRM, and create a new closed integration with everything. I can make my own CRM. The analytics in Oracle CX Sales are good. We can use ODA (Oracle Digital Assistant) to track data. There are some out-of-the-box reports for things like currency exchange data or product lists. These features are there by default. If you need to create new custom reports, it's possible to do so. They've been lagging behind the visual builder recently, but the product has improved.
GodfreyNoel - PeerSpot reviewer
Excellent user experience with ease of use and reliable technical support
When SAP CRM does the maintenance, it can take a long time, which can impact business continuity because we have to wait for the maintenance team to finish their work. Maybe if SAP could establish how you can access the tool using a cloud-based environment that would be virtualization, that would be better.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It is stable and scalable, and their support has been very responsive."
"The solution integrates well."
"The analytics features in Oracle CX Sales are good."
"the Oracle CX Sales Eloqua module is very useful."
"CX Sales is very intuitive - you just have to click a few buttons, and you see everything."
"Account management is a very good feature. It is conceptualized very well, and we can look at all the projects under one account. The data for those accounts remain there throughout."
"In my experience, the most valuable feature of Oracle CX Sales varies depending on the vertical of the business you're in. Oracle offers industry-specific products tailored to different sectors. However, the sales cycles and methods remain largely consistent across the board."
"It covers sales very well."
"SAP CRM has a good performance."
"SAP CRM is a scalable solution."
"The primary use case for us is lead creation and data management."
"The solution's contract management and product hierarchy features of SAP CRM are the most beneficial for our business operations."
"The flexibility to design the portal and customize it according to the needs of the clients is valuable. The integration with SAP ERP is also valuable."
"The user interface is excellent."
"The most valuable feature for me is the flexibility to consolidate the products."
"When we are using SAP CRM we receive more accurate results than using any other CRM system."
 

Cons

"The interface of Oracle CX Sales could be more user-friendly."
"It gives multiple entries for the same data because if you enter it once, it has to populate all other fields that are relevant."
"They could provide more integrated AI features as part of the platform rather than as a separate offering."
"You can get disconnected if you do not have a strong, reliable internet connection."
"We have had some issues with integration between our old database and the Oracle CX Sales Cloud, but it has been working well for the time being."
"CX Sales' stability isn't the best - it has a tendency to crap out and need refreshing, especially when creating quotes."
"Support is very poor."
"They've been lacking in creating customization from scratch and in sales."
"SAP CRM could improve by being easier to use and customer-friendly."
"The product is very expensive."
"The B2C features of SAP are strong, but they are not very known to the public and companies. They must make it more known for B2C applications or B2C use cases."
"Improvement is needed for SAP CRM's integration with Microsoft Teams and Outlook Its integration with Microsoft collaboration software, including Teams, Outlook, and SharePoint, is not very good. There are issues with synchronization between appointments in CRM and Outlook, as well as challenges with managing contacts, which creates problems."
"There are quite a lot of missing parts in SAP CRM, which is why we do a lot of customization. Not everything is there, and some things need custom coding to cater to specific needs. It is not a plug-and-play solution with standard features, and we have to customize quite a lot."
"SAP CRM could improve by making the solution more current, it is out of date. There are no more updates for SAP CRM."
"What I see as a challenge against our competitor is that Salesforce comes with more flexibility, for enhancement purposes, whereas the SAP CRM Cloud is more robust and rigid. It's not flexible to implement any bespoke solution."
"As SAP CRM is still in its pilot version in my company, and my team is still experimenting on it, there's little room for exploration, but its setup is not as straightforward, so this could be an area for improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's more costly, and I would give it a two on a scale from one to five with one being expensive and five being competitive pricing."
"The product is pricey."
"It's expensive, but worth the money."
"The price is reasonable."
"The product pricing is reasonable compared to other solutions in the market."
"Pricing is based on licensing. They offer three different levels: basic, advanced, and enterprise. While I haven't checked the pricing recently, they often provide good discounts on the product."
"The solution is reasonably priced compared to other tools."
"The product is costly."
"The pricing from SAP is good but it takes time to realize the investment."
"SAP CRM costs approximately a couple of thousand a month."
"Its price is reasonable. As compared to other CRMs, this CRM is competitively priced. They have multiple flavors with different sets of functionality. Pricing is based on the flavor that suits your requirement. If you have more users, the cost will come down."
"The company has seen an increase in revenue."
"SAP CRM is an expensive product."
"From the maintenance perspective, SAP CRM is quite expensive compared to cloud services because the current solution they're using is managed by us and we are hosting it on servers. There is the cost of hosting, and managing servers and applications. The overhead is substantial, but this solution is a legacy system. It will take some time for the customer to migrate out of it."
"There is a license required to use SAP CRM."
